I know it's been asked before, but is there a critical function Yahoo! serves right now that would have to be replicated immediately if they went away? I honestly cannot think of anything that couldn't be reproduced by other tech and media companies rather quickly.

- heimatau 11y agoMost don't realize it but Yahoo Small Business and their storefront/hosting efforts generate a lot of revenue for them. But most of their revenue is from ads.
- skuhn 11y agoYahoo already indicated that they don't care about that product. It was their pick to get spun off along with the Alibaba stock as Aabaco: https://www.aabacosmallbusiness.com/ https://www.aabacosmallbusiness.com/ Since the actual spinoff seems to have fizzled, Yahoo does still own them, but I can only presume they did serious damage to its user trust by leaving it in this limbo state. They also claimed revenue of $50 million a year when they announced the spinoff, which is not exactly big money for a place Yahoo's size.
